The hag nodded her withered head. "Ask, then, child of two worlds. But remember..." She fixed Isiea with a hollow glare. "All knowledge must be paid for. I will give you the answers you seek, but I desire something in return. Will you accept the price?"
More faery bargains. More prices to pay. She was so much in debt already, she would never see the end of it.
